Sessions: Oct 15th, Oct 22nd, Oct 29th, Nov 5th, Nov 12th, Nov 19th from 3:30 pm – 4:30 pm
Description: Virtual thematic peer support group – we invite family caregivers to join us in this virtual bi-weekly support group meeting. This will be a safe learning and sharing space for caregivers to receive and give support to others in a similar caregiving situation.
Caregivers will have access to a library of resources focused on themes discussed in the meetings. Participants can expect to openly share on diverse caregiving concerns related to their current experiences. Emerging themes discussed in previous meetings include dealing with the emotional side of caregiving, family dynamics, navigating the healthcare system, etc. Come and share in a space you can be heard, and your voice will matter.
Purpose: Provide caregivers with an opportunity to practice mindfulness together, reduce stress, and build resilience through guided sessions.
Participant Experience & Outcomes: Caregivers will learn and practice mindfulness techniques, build self-compassion, and leave with simple tools and resources (guided audio and reading list) to use daily.
Registration: Registered participants commit to attending all 6 sessions. You must pre-register to join the entire series: Register in advance here.
